Storing links in a dozen or so pages is not the best practice - use a templating language :) Versioning CSS and Java Scripts is a really good idea - browsers tend to cache them longer than pages in a few instances. > application assembling, not about a repository - as in the > repository every artifact without any exception should be > versioned.

I agree that it should be possible. The best example is the WAR file itself - you can't install it with its version into any application server because the paths will change every time :) Cheers, Brett
